    Holy Fuck....... I just cant believe this..

    I never meet uncleB (vtwin) but I remember reading his posts about the antics he got up to living next door to Stonechucker... and him being there for stonechucker after his accident.

    Reading all his posts in BuckBuckNo1 thread as his riding mentor and giving out wonderful advise to Buck.

    To all that meet Bruce and knew him well. Remember all the good times...... the laughs and the rides you all did together.

    Condolances to his family and his mates.

    Rest in Peace.

    I went round to StoneChucker and shared a hug and tears was all that need be said.

    Biggles1 spoke to you this morning. Hang in there and stay strong.

    God Bless You All in from your rides today.

    In memory of Uncle B.

    Had the pleasure of meeting Bruce only a couple of times albeit briefly,but it only took one time to know that this man was one of the "Goodies" an outwardly kind and sincere man.
    There will be a lot of newbies out there,me for one,thinking oh fuck!
    My sincerest condolences to your family,your friends and the KBr family.

    Bruce...
    You lead the way on my first ever 'Rapa ride. You lead me into the corner where I had my first crash (my fault!) and picked me up again. You trusted me with your SV1000 for my first 'bigger than a 250' ride...and you answered all my stupid questions (bike related and otherwise) without judgement or derision. You were the one behind me when I had the best ride ever over the Takas that Sunday arvo, and *you* revoked my nana status. You even used your own partners asthma attacks as an excuse for an 'sick day' of blatting around the Rapa with me.

    You are awesome dude, and I'll miss you turning up on my doorstep on the chance that I'll be keen for a ride. I am the biker I am because of you...apart from the 'nana-ring' part

    My feelings go out to Debbie and Bruce's family.

    My love and thoughts are with Bruce's Wife, parents, his other family and his closest friends at the moment.
    All I can really say is I will miss your smiling face, your advise, your kindness and your sense of humor, but most of all
    I want my Uncle B back.

    I pretty much missed the whole weekend sick in bed, but to log on now and read of the black weekend for KB'rs is sobering.

    My condolences to all who have lost loved ones this weekend, the posts show the deep care you all have for fellow bikers and friends. I have only known most of you from this website but feel for the loss of those held in high esteem.

    Am shocked and saddened to hear the news. Bruce truly had a big heart and was respected by all who met him - sort of guy who would never say a bad word about anyone or anything, just accepted things for what they were and got on with life. First time I met Bruce he had the SV1000 and I was totally impressed by the way he kept that thing immaculate, and had blinged it up to the max. Bruce loved his bikes, they were not just a commodity for him - we have lost a very special man today. Condolences to friends and family. RIP Bruce.

    Jesus, that's awful news!!!

    Never had the pleasure of meeting Bruce, but would like to thank him for his encouragement with our proposed move to NZ, and sharing with me in words the pleasures of motorcycling on NZ's roads with you guys. Wish I'd had the opportunity to ride them with you mate.

    Thoughts and sympathies to all family and friends.

    RIP fella.

    Not again. I have only just finished the thread about Bruce and Darryl. What a terrible weekend this has been.

    My sincere condolences to family and friends.

    I hope I don't have to type again that any time soon.
